Leonid Kotei Sasraku-Neequaye iii ABSTRACT A large majority of drugs and drug candidates incorporate amine functionality and these include important compounds such as morphine, quinine and nicotine. N-Sulfinyl-imines (sulfinimines) are a versatile class of intermediates in organic synthesis particularly for the preparation of amines and amine derivatives. We herein report an efficient and cost effective one-pot synthesis of sulfinimines in enantiopure form (>99.8% ee) and in relatively high yields. In our investigations, we developed the scheme that involves the use of 1,2,3- oxathiazolidine-2-oxide derived from (1R, 2S)-(-)-norephedrine as a chiral auxiliary. Opening of the 1,2,3-oxathiazolidine-2-oxide with a mesityl Grignard reagent followed by treatment of the crude mixture with lithium hexamethyldisilasane afforded the mestyl sulfinamide in 72% yield and 76% recovery of the chiral auxiliary.

  • The Utilization of Sulfinimines (N-Sulfinyl Imines) in The
    THE UTILIZATION OF SULFINIMINES (N-SULFINYL IMINES) IN THE ASYMMETRIC SYNTHESIS OF SUBSTITUTED PYRROLIDINES A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY By Kerisha Andrea Bowen May 2009 ABSTRACT The Utilization of Sulfinimines (N-Sulfinyl Imines) Towards the Sythesis of Nitrogen Containing Compounds By Kerisha A. Bowen Doctor of Philosophy Temple University, 2009 Doctoral Advisory Committee Chair: Professor Franklin A. Davis, Ph.D. The objective of this research was the development of new methods for the asymmetric synthesis of nitrogen containing compounds. As one part of this goal, 3,4- dihydroxyprolines and their derivatives were prepared from sulfinimines (N-sulfinyl imines). During this project new methods were developed for asymmetric hydroxylation and decarboxylation of 3-oxo-2-carboxylate pyrroldines. The application of this new methodology was realized by the total synthesis of the α- and β-glycosidases inhibitor (+)-lentginosine. It was also found that electrophiles regioselectively add to the 4-position of 3-oxo-2- carboxylate-5-substituted pyrrolidines. The addition is accomplished through lithium diisopropyl amide generation of the pyrrolidine dianion. This addition was also compatible with 3-oxo-2-phosophono-5-substituted pyrroldines. Furthermore air oxidation of these pyrrolidines give the corresponding pyrroles. This procedure represents the first general preparation procedure for 2-phonopyrroles, which have been examined as HIV protease inhibitors. ii A range of β-amino carbonyl compounds were prepared from N-sulfinyl β-amino Weinreb amides in a concise and efficient procedure. A general method for the preparation of a variety of β-amino carbonyl compounds arose from the addition of an assortment of organometallic reagents to the Weinreb amides.

These imines are versatile chiral auxiliaries and have been extensively used as eletrophiles in a wide range of reactions. The electron-with- drawing sulfinyl group facilitates the nucleophilic addition of organometallic compounds to the iminic carbon with high diastereo- isomeric excess and the free amines obtained after an easy removal of the tert-butanesulfinyl group can be transformed into enantioenriched nitrogen-containing heterocycles.

Academic Editor: Derek J. McPhee Received: 19 December 2014 / Accepted: 3 February 2015 / Published: 11 February 2015 Abstract: The synthesis of optically active sulfinic acid esters has been accomplished by the acid catalyzed alcoholysis of optically active sulfinamides. Sulfinates are formed in this reaction with a full or predominant inversion of configuration at chiral sulfur or with predominant retention of configuration. The steric course of the reaction depends mainly on the size of the dialkylamido group in the sulfinamides and of the alcohols used as nucleophilic reagents. It has been found that bulky reaction components preferentially form sulfinates with retention of configuration. It has been demonstrated that the stereochemical outcome of the reaction can be changed from inversion to retention and vice versa by adding inorganic salts to the acidic reaction medium. The unusual stereochemistry of this typical bimolecular nucleophilic substitution reaction, as confirmed by kinetic measurements, has been rationalized in terms of the addition-elimination mechanism, A-E, involving sulfuranes as intermediates which undergo pseudorotations.

  • New Methodologies for the Asymmetric Syntheses of Amines and Nitrogen Heterocycles from Enantiopure Sulfinimines
    NEW METHODOLOGIES FOR THE ASYMMETRIC SYNTHESES OF AMINES AND NITROGEN HETEROCYCLES FROM ENANTIOPURE SULFINIMINES (N-SULFINYL IMINES) A Dissertation Submitted to The Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirement for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY By Hui Qiu January, 2012 Examining Committee Member: Dr. Franklin A.

Davis, Ph.D. The objective of this research was to development new methodologies for the asymmetric syntheses of amine and natural products from enantiopure sulfinimines (N- sulfinyl imines). In this context, new methods was devised for the asymmetric synthesis of 2,5-cis and trans-disubstituted pyrrolidines from 3-oxo pyrrolidine 2-phosphonates, prepared by an intramolecular metal carbenoid N-H insertion from a sulfinimine derived -amino -diazo -ketophosphonate. Horner-Wadsworth-Emmos reaction of the 3-oxo pyrrolidine 2-phosphonates and aldehydes provided Pyrrolidine enones. Hydrogenation (Pd/H2) of the pyrrolidine enones gave cis-2,5-disubstituted pyrrolidines. Luche reduction the pyrrolidine enones followed by a TFA-NaBH3CN mediated hydroxy iii directed reduction provided the 2,5-trans products. (+)-Preussin, a potent antiviral and antitumor agent was prepared in 9 steps in 28% overall yield from the sulfinimine.
